Philadelphia Engagement Photos Lisa and Luke

Well, what a fantastic day I had photographing Lisa and Luke in the city. The weather was perfect and the scenes were awesome. I really enjoyed working with them and the time simply flew by. They were a blast to work with, if you call this work!!:)

We did the engagement photography in a few different locations such as The Race Street Pier, Penn’s Landing, Headhouse Square and South Street. Everywhere we turned, there were great settings. Even got to meet Charlie the poodle as he was being walked by his owner. So here are a few “teaser” images. But the best is yet to come, Lisa and Luke!

 

Rivercrest Wedding Photo of Melissa and Derek

Saturday started out as a cloudy and dreary day with threats of rain at any time. Fortunately, we were able to work literally in between rain drops as we headed over to Rivercrest Golf Club  before the ceremony. Here is one of my personal faves of Melissa and Derek taken shortly after a rain shower. 

Philadelphia Wedding Photography at Talamore Country Club

Another wonderful wedding day in the Philadelphia suburbs as Eileen Fleury and Eric Ladzinski tied the knot at Saint Bede’s church in Holland PA. And this Philadelphia wedding photographer was there to record the entire event. The ceremony was officiated by Eileens uncle who is a priest in the military.  I always thought it was very special to have a relative perform the ceremony. Something unique and very personal.

Afterwards, in between a handful of raindrops, we headed over to the always beautiful Talamore Country Club. Even though it was threatening to rain any minute, the weather cooperated. Then in for the celebration as we were greeted by the sights and sounds of Synergetic Sounds . They did an incredible job with the lighting, keeping with the purple color theme. Adding to the day and keeping with the color scheme, Valleygreen Flowers and Gifts  provided beautiful bouquets and arrangements.

Philadelphia Wedding Photographer at Cairnwood Estate

When Philadelphia residents Chanelle Bailey and John Darden first started to plan their wedding, they thought June 1 would be a great time to avoid midsummers heat and humidity. Well, even the best laid plans can sometimes go awry as the mercury soared into the 90’s. Not a problem for this Philadelphia wedding photographer . Fortunately, the inside as well as the outside of  The Cairnwood Estate serve as exquisite settings for anything photographic. Chanelle looked fabulous in her gown by Bijou Bridal of Ardmore and she wore it well. Chanelle’s bouquet by Offshoots Decor  provided a wonderful accent to her gown as well as for the bridesmaids and all the key family members.They also were instrumental in the table decor and throughout the estate. Entertainment by DJ Oz kept everyone dancing to some great tunes. 

 

Philadelphia Wedding Photographer at the Northampton Valley Country Club – Anna and Kevin’s Wedding

I can’t remember a wedding day where the weather was so crappy and yet had such a wonderful time photographing. Anna and Kevin showed zero disappointment with the weather as we made plans for their big reveal. What was happening outside of The Northampton Valley Country Club was of no real concern as the interior decor gave us plenty to work with. But we were able to step outside for just a few moments to get a couple of great images as well.

Anna looked wonderful with her hair done with color accents by Orchid Beauty Salon and make-up by Revolutionary Design & Lor Cosmetics Studio. Anna’s rose accented bouquet was provided by Dan of Domenic Graziano Flowers  as were the wonderful towering table centerpieces.

Kevin looked quite dashing in his ivory vested tux with matching tie supplied by Schweon’s  .

The evening kicked off with entertainment by Danny Pavone of  East Coast Disc-Jockeys who also supplied the video coverage by Andrew Johnson. The dinner was delicious which may be an understatement. The presentation was equally as mouth watering as the taste. And the sweet table was also a sight to behold as Anna made a beeline for a piece of the strawberry shortcake. Dining and dancing continued virtually non stop until it was time to say goodnight to all at the stroke of 12.  It was indeed a fabulous wedding as Anna and Kevin were just so much fun to work with.

But it’s not over yet! We are in the process of planning some Philadelphia wedding photography in the form of a Center City wedding photo shoot. This time we will have the luxury of picking and choosing the weather. It’s going to be awesome. The Center City photos will be a phenomenal addition to the wedding day photos.
